Has anyone here ever tried out either? I'm going to be getting one or the other in the next couple of weeks and so am holding little informal polls.
I commute a couple hours a day so commercial free radio is worth every penny. Plus, I've had XM for a few days here and there with loaner cars from the dealer and it's totally addicting. Commercial free radio and the range of news stations and sports stations these services have. So that really sold me on getting either one or the other.
Sirius seems to be going places and seems to have the capital on hand to really expand and offer a great range of channels on top of the great ones they already have soon. I don't listen to Stern so that's not a factor. Plus they have the NFL channel which kicks ass. And their range of music stations seems very much to my liking.
XM... well as I said I've used them before. So I know they have stations that play music I like. My music tastes are kind of eclectic and I like a lot of indie shit you never hear on the radio so it's a big deal for me to be sure I can find music I like, and know music I like exists on XM. XM also has all the college sports stations, which is awesome.
Right now I'm leaning towards Sirius because their music station list seems like it'd have lots of stuff I like, though I haven't yet listened to be sure.
Just soliciting the experiences of others, though.
